the crowd knew what hap
pened, Martin who is six feet tall and
a former football player, had landed
squarely on he assassin's shoulders
and had borne him to the ground.
1 All this happened within a few seconds,
and Colonel Roosevelt stood gazing
rather curiously at the man who, had
attempted his lifer before the stunned
crowd , realized what was going on.
Then a howl of rage went up..
"Lynch him! Kill him!" cried a hun
dred men.
Roosevelt' raised '.his hand and mo
tioned to the crowd to fall back. "Stop!
Stop!" he cried. "Stand back,, don't
hurt him!"
The men in the crowd at first, were
not disposed. to heed his words, but at
lenght fell back and permitted Martin
and Captain Girard to carry the man
into the hotel,
The Colonel continued his speech
evidently with increasing effort. Then
he was rushed to his automobile and
to the Emergency Hospital.
The operating room had been placed
in readiness to receive him and six of
the leading surgeons of Milwaukee
were awiating his arrival.
Colonel Roosevelt was undressed
and placed upon the operating table
although he insisted he was not badly
hurt and that the doctors were taking
it seriously .
An examination of the wound showed
that it had been made by a bullet of
large size. It entered the fleshy part
of the right breast, half way between
the collarbone and - lower ' rib. The
physicians found that - they knew no
more after their examination than be
fore as to the location of the bullet and
it was decided to send for. an X-ray"
machine' to determine, towhat depth
the missile had penetrated. While
he was waiting tor the -Xray machine,
Colonel Roosevelt' sat upon the operat,
ing table, and talked politics and joked
with the physicians.
At midnight he was placed on a train
and rushed to Chicago where he was
placed in Mercy Hospital..

THE GROUNDS BEST IN STATE
Grand Stapd Most Beautiful and
Comfortable Ever Erected,
In North Carolina
KwiBy -1.1 Leon WUliama)
'',"The-vAmerican -people love, to be
humbugged,?' This, statement ' was"5
made bf. hK "greatest show ma n o a
number of yearShis,tt)cement held
true, buif'tUfte.iitr: yn,, the
American people have btgun to demand
that they get a square deal from those
who separate them forwyseir hard
earned money. . ' ? ,
Recently there . was advertised that
there would be a fair in a certain town
in Eastern North Carolina,' The fair
was a gigantic failure, because the pT9-
motets had deceived the, public. Fort'
unately for- the public they found out
before the advertised date that the
whole thing would be a fake, and the
public did not show up.
As secretary "of the Eastern Carolina
Fair Association at New Bern I 'visited
the fair referred to above and all I dis
covered there was a sandy race track,
a shed that scould not be called by the
dignity of the name a trrand sstand. and
a few shows on trie "Midway" that was
standing idle.
I , mention these things to show
what a hard proposition an organization
has to go up against who desires to have
a legitmate proposition when one has
fooled the public time- and time again
by advertising something that they
cannot and will not produce.
At the outset, I want to make
the broad statement that the Fair
grounds of the Eastern Carolina Fair
Association Company at New Bern
is today the most beautiful and best
located fair grounds in North Carolina.
This sounds like hot air to the men who
do not know the spirit with which New
Bern tackles a proposition. Those
who visited the Bi-Ceruennial know that
it was the greatest event of its kind
ever pulled off in North' Carolina. ,
Those who attended the "Elks Con
vention,";, the Shnners .Convention"
and other conventions at New Bern
know, that New Bern never does things
by' halves. -
The fair grounds are situated ata
beautiful spot on the NWse river known
as1 the, Oaka Farm. The, Association
Owns one-hundred acres of land. tliirtvJ
otLWhich is now enclosed in the Fair
grounds and seventy of which extends
along, the Neuse river and is considered
one of the most beautiful natural parka
in ttye country.
As one enters the Fair, grounds they

A fair-sized audience greeted Dr-
John M. Faison, Democratic candidate
for re-election. to Congress at the Court
house last night. He was introduced
to the audience by Mr. R, A. Nunn.
r Drl Faison maintained that Republic
can Vule, Instead of being the cause of
prosperity la this country as n so often
claimed, has been a constantly hinder
ing influence.
"But for the curse of the Republican
party," he said "the United State
would be today the greatest country
ia the world and the richest in every
way. For years the Republican presf
dents have been the puppets of IHe
money kings and as Jong a the Repub
licans are in power they will continue
to be led around by these men, The
South has not been given an opportunity
of expanding, the Republicans knowing
that once it came into its own in the
eyes of the world their reign would be
over. Notwithstanding this it is now
one of the best , sections in the country
and is gaining its hold upon the manage
ment of the affairs of the nation. The
Republicans are losing their hold here.
When a party gAins the contempt of
its own leaders who denounce each
other as crooks and scoundrels there
is but little wonder that they alscgain
the contempt and disdain of those out

GAME TODAY.
The seventh game of the World's
baseball series was won yesterday at
Fenway- Park, Boston, by Now York,
the score being 11 to 4, Tesreau and
Meyers were the battery for New Tork.
Boston started off with the hitherto
invincible Joe Wood in the box, but
when the Giants piled up six runs in
the first inning,; Wood was withdrawn
and Hall put in his place. But New
York was in batting mood and kept
right on adding to its score.
The game today, which will be played
at Boston, will decide which team gets
the penant. unless it results in a tie.
Each team has three victories to its
credit.

hands and hearts of the New Bern
Christians great things are ahead in
the Tabernacle.
